1 hour and 30 minutes

Easy

Meet animals movie stars during park visit

Available: 1.8.–30.11. and 1.4.–30.4.

Visit one of Finland’s oldest husky kennels, home to the legendary musher Reijo Jääskeläinen and his Siberian huskies – some of them trained animal movie stars. On the drive from Levi, your guide will share fascinating facts about huskies and Arctic wildlife.

At the kennel, you'll meet Siberian huskies of all ages, arctic foxes, red foxes, tundra wolves, dog-wolf mixes, spitzes, and puppies (when available). The host will demonstrate tricks and share stories about the animals' film careers. As an optional add-on, you can enter the brown fox enclosure and take selfies with them.

After the tour, relax in a warm Lappish hut with hot drinks and cookies by the fire, visit the musher’s Hall of Fame, watch a film about husky life, and browse local souvenirs.

        What to bring

          We strongly recommend wearing warm winter clothing. It can be rented separately before departure from the STG / Safarimarket office in Levi center at extra charge. If you want to rent the clothing, please be at least 20 min before pick up time to get dressed.

          It’s better to be dressed overly warm than “underdressed”, especially on longer safari programs. In cold weather, we recommend applying no-water based winter cream for face and cover open skin areas tightly. Bring gloves or better mittens, a good hat, hand/foot warmers and goggles.

          Please take off your gloves/mittens when touching the huskies. They love to play with gloves and might break it easily. Do not be afraid of dogs, as they are genetically friendly to people. Do not feed the dogs.
